Thanks for dropping by my JustGiving page for St. Gemma's Hospice in Leeds. The charity are amazing and provide support and care for those with life threatening illnesses, and their families too.

I chose St. Gemma's Hospice to give to because I have seen first hand how much work they put in to the charity. My mother in law has spent a large amount of time in their care, as she suffers from terminal cancer. They are doing a great job and their fundraising team work so hard.

I have always struggled with my weight, and I am at my heaviest which is more of a struggle now than its ever been. I'm looking to make a change for the better, for my health and my husband.

My weight has rocketed and my health suffers for it. I have asthma and sleep apnoea, my symptons will surely ease through sensible eating and regular exercise which I am planning for in my challenge.

Please donate what you can. I will be posting daily updates on my progress. While I am not stating my current weight I will be posting updates on my loss per week and how far I have to go.

I am sure St Gemma's will be delighted with the funds raised!
